Question 289235: A baseball has the radius of 1.5". Home plate is 16 inches wide. If the baseball rolled across home plate, how many complete rotations would it take to cover the distance? Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! circumference =2*pi*r
6.28*1.5
16/(2*3.14*1.5)
8/3.14*1.5
almost 4 times
3.82 times across the width of a 16 in homeplate
